Can I create Departments in ApprovalMax that have different Approvers? (Xero)

You can use Xero Tracking Categories with tracking options for this purpose.

This is how it works:
  1. First, create a Tracking Category in Xero: a Department with tracking options such as Production, Marketing, Sales, etc.

Please note: If you change Tracking categories/Tracking options in Xero, they will not be automatically updated in the approval matrix. You need to update it manually.
